The ubiquitous generation of data traces on the Internet ("dataficiation") in a digitally transformed society and economy also poses great challenges for us researchers. The resulting data is characterized by an enormous amount of data, unstructuredness and heterogeneity (e.g., images, videos, unstructured texts from social media). In order to obtain a comprehensive overall picture of economic and social processes, their analysis is indispensable.

The consortium for economics and social sciences BERD@NFDI aims to provide infrastructures to meet the challenges of extended empirical research. To this end, the initiative is building a powerful platform for the collection, processing, analysis and preservation of unstructured data from Business, Economics and related Data. Dr. Ulrich Krieger from the University Library of the University of Mannheim lets us take a look at this centerpiece: Who is this platform for, how well do the combined methods from the fields of artificial intelligence and machine learning work, and what is the significance of the FAIR data principles?
